We had a 2020 Corolla as a rental over Christmas/New Years 2019/20, and it was amazing. What we drive at home: a 2008 Ford Fiesta that my husband bought in 2013

My only worry is that something will go wrong enough with it in the next year or so that we’d be compelled to get another car in this rather tight market, but otherwise, knowing that your car's current resale (and repurchase) value is approximately the secondary wage earner’s monthly after-tax income is liberating.

- VVertigo 5y agoYes, new models typically start being available around September: I always thought it was absurd too as a kid growing up, but it makes sense when you consider that competitive marketing pressures would drive manufacturers to release the new cars earlier and earlier. You can check the sticker somewhere around the driver's door to see when a vehicle was actually manufactured.
